The full-length film “Buratino”, which was filmed at the Moskino cinema park, will be released on January 1, 2026, 50 years after the premiere of the famous Soviet musical film. The new film was filmed from September to November 2024. The music for it was written by composer Alexey Rybnikov.
The People’s Artist of Russia created unique arrangements, inspired by the characters’ personalities. The film retains the classic compositions from the Soviet adaptation, and also adds new musical elements.
“In most of the film we left the compositions from the Soviet film, and, for example, for the scene where Papa Carlo makes a doll, I wrote new lyrics to the music from the first film. All the other songs remained with the classic words, but one of them will sound unusual, it will be a surprise for all viewers,” shared Alexey Rybnikov.
For the project, the Moskino cinema park built a set called “Provincial Towns of Europe” with an area of over 11 thousand square meters. The composer noted that they were made so naturally and realistically that it created the feeling of filming in a real Italian city. These are several streets with realistic buildings – a church, Giuseppe’s house, a school, a theater and others.
Numerous streets and squares, small artistic details, fountains, niches, inscriptions – everything is worked out to the smallest detail. Alexey Rybnikov emphasized that the creation of such a site within the boundaries of Moscow is a great help and success for filmmakers.
The site offers comfortable conditions for work, and each decoration is unique and interesting in its own way. The composer called the idea of creating a world-class cinema park in the capital fantastic.
“The sets in the film ‟Buratino‟ are an amazing achievement of the set designers and producers who decided to do everything exactly like this. It creates the feeling that you are not in Moscow, but on the streets of Italy, where the action takes place. In general, for the film ‟Buratino‟ there were not many scenes in the pavilion, basically everything happened on the natural set, which is quite unusual. When you shoot in the pavilion, you really feel it, and here everything is natural and great. Therefore, I think that more than one project will definitely be created in the set design,” added Alexey Rybnikov.
The fairy tale plot of the film will tell viewers how one day Papa Carlo, who dreams of becoming a father, gets a magic key. His dream comes true when a simple log turns into a smart and cheerful wooden boy Buratino. The father dotes on his creation, but Buratino feels that he is not like other children, and sets off on a journey to get to know himself better.
The film takes much from the traditional interpretation of the fairy tale “Pinocchio”, but Buratino himself will appear before the audience in the form of a wooden three-dimensional doll, brought to life thanks to new computer technologies.
The project’s director is Igor Voloshin, the producers are Alexander Andryushchenko, Fyodor Bondarchuk and Denis Baglai. The main roles were played by Lev Zulkarnayev, Fyodor Bondarchuk, Mark Eidelshtein, Stepan Belozerov, Anastasia Talyzina, Victoria Isakova, Alexander Petrov and other actors.
The Moskino cinema park is part of Sergei Sobyanin’s “Moscow – City of Cinema” project and an object of the Moscow cinema cluster, which is being developed by the capital Department of Culture.
